Toolin' around

After swapping out my doorsills I had to find a use for the old ones.

That's a great idea Tim! Very sharp.

What did you replace them with on the MINI?

What's involved in removing the existing sills? Thinking about putting JCW sills on my Mini. Is this a DIY thing?

They are attached with double-stick tape. I removed the old ones using a thin piano wire.
